Welcome on Scubaboard! I am sure you will find plenty of useful information here

I dove with Sierra Madre and had a good experience. They are located in Alona Beach, they have many Chinese and Korean customers. The owners should be American as far as I understood

I have been diving in Balicasag too at the Black Forest and another spot I can’t remember, both very nice dives especially Black Forest with the school of jackfish. Then I dove in a spot called Swiss bamboo in the Alona reef, not bad too even if it’s not comparable to Balicasag

Hello, is there anything new to add on the suggestions on these books or I can just pull the trigger and order the indo pacific coral reef field guide by Allen and Steene? Thanks

Today I had 2 dives at Napaling reef, inside the Bohol Kalikasan resort. Very nice wall dives for me, the coral is healthy and colourful, there are many fishes of different species and I saw among many the frog fish and the pipefish. Schools of sardines too. I was diving with the Bohol Sea...

I am again in Panglao! Will ask/give some info on this topic in the next days.

Between 16 and 20 celsius degrees (Mediterranean sea in summer)

Hello everybody, I got a Seaskin trilam drysuit and the heavy winter undergarments also from Seaskin. I would like to buy also some summer light undergarments to dive in the sea. What do you use when the water temperature is warm? Thanks

Ciao Valerio I am from Italy too Welcome on Scubaboard I am sure you will find plenty of useful information in this forum

It's an overkill for late August/early September in Italy, even in Northern Italy like Liguria. That would be useful only in late autumn or winter Rental suits are in decent conditions Most of the regulators are DIN but in the diving you can always borrow a converter insert, or even buy one...

Welcome on the forum

How beautiful I wish I could see this at least once before I die

You are a very good video maker both in and out of the water

Before the shore there is also another access, some stairs going down the hill from the road, a few hundred meters before the shore. If you want to change diving spot you can try that one too

There are several roman ships dive in Italy, at different depths, some of them accessible only to technical divers like the one you linked which is at 60 meters. Close to it there is also the "secca di Santo Stefano" which is a nice non-archeological dive As far as I know also in Liguria there...

The ruins in Baia are very close to the surface, let me say at like 6 or 7 meters. The visibility depends a lot from the sea conditions. Close to Baia there is also the "secca delle fumose" with both roman ruins (less interesting than Baia) and volcanic water underwater geysers and volcanic...

1) Yes I like the zipped pockets and would recommend them. Eventually I didn't get them face forward but on the sides, which is a more common setup, following the advice I received here 2) I like the base layer, but honestly I am not sure it is better than other sport base layers, I would say...

No they forgot to include the p-valve in the drysuit even if i ordered It. They reduced the price accordingly and made a refund when i contacted them. They also asked me if i wanted the p-valve delivered separately and then install It myself, but i decided i dont really Need It now and i kept...

Hi elZub Yes I am happy with it. Honestly I had only a few dives with it until now, because for several reasons I could dive only a little recently. Anyway, the product is good, sturdy and well manufactured, also based on the opinion of more experienced divers who saw it. As for the setup, I am...

Thanks for your trip report Nice videos both of the dives and of the landscapes
